Basic Medic First Aid® with AED - Jasper: Med- ic First Aid® with AED (automated external defibril- lator) is a basic training course in emergency care de- signed for use in the business/industrial setting. Car- diopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), AED use, and oth- er important emergency care skills are combined into this course, which allows the graduate to function with one consistent set of priorities in a medical emergen- cy. Students learn the same priorities of care and ap- proach to the patient used by professionals. This ap- proach results in a continuity of care as the patient is passed on to the EMT, nurse, and doctor. Successful completion of the course means the stu- dent has acquired these skills, understands the dan- gers of an emergency scene and how to evaluate them, and understands the use of protective barriers. Taught by nationally certified instructors, the course satisfies OSHA requirements for industry and business. A Medic First Aid® with AED course will be offered Tuesday August 21 from 8 a.m. - 12 p.m. in the Health and Wellness Classroom at Memorial Southside Of- fice, 1100 West 12th Avenue in Jasper. The fee for the class is $ 65; class size is limited, and pre-registration is required by visiting Memori- al Hospital's website at www.mhhcc.org and clicking on "Classes & Events," or calling the Health and Well- ness department at 812-996 -2399 or toll-free at 800 - 852-7279, ext. 2399.

He originally claimed Rob- inson said they could take the items to use to work on an exhaust on Robinson's truck. Deputy Seger's report said Besing, multiple times, said he would get the items back and pay for anything missing so he wouldn't get into trouble. According to Seger's re- port, Besing eventually ad- mitted, "stealing the tanks and torch," after they drove into the mine while they were drinking and "back- roading." He claimed he drove into the mine with Robinson in the bed of the truck and Robinson put the tanks and torch in his truck and he drove away. THEFT Continued from page 1 THIS IS THE PLACE FOR YOU!
